Thrilled to announce the launch of our TBXT Challenge, offering $500K+ in prizes to companies and research teams to accelerate TBXT (brachyury) targeted therapies. Excited for drug discovery innovators to enter this challenge, and very grateful to our supporters (incl. @ChanZuckerberg & @TheMarkFdn) who helped lay the groundwork to make it possible.

This Giving Tuesday, please join me in supporting the CF. I have seen firsthand the way the CF changes lives. It’s the honor of my life to get to help others facing this one-in-a-million cancer. 💙🎗️ Share this link and spread the word!

Mac Sinise fought bravely against metastatic chordoma for more than five years before succumbing to this disease. Determined to bring to fruition Mac’s hope for better treatments, @GarySinise and his family established the Moving Ahead for Cures (MAC) Fund in Mac's memory: https://t.co/IRF2khbG1e
Incredibly, the fund — aimed at bringing new, more effective treatments to chordoma patients as quickly as possible — has already raised over $1M toward its near-term $2M goal. 💪
We'll always carry Mac's memory with us, and we appreciate the generosity of MAC Fund donors including the Sinise Family, Jim Courter, the Bob & Dolores Hope Foundation, George Joseph, Terri Yontz Miller, and countless others fighting alongside us for better outcomes.
Just 26 days to go until our Chordoma Community Day in Houston! Connect with fellow survivors, hear from leading experts, & find support & inspiration in our journey together. Don't miss out on this empowering day - register now!

For the last five years, Mac Sinise, the son of Gary and Moira Sinise, fought bravely against chordoma.
Throughout our time knowing Mac and his family, they’ve inspired us with their courage, perseverance, and deep care for each other. (1/5)
